Eh, wasn't bad. The beginning is very slow and half an hour into the movie I was getting so tired of waiting for the point I almost stopped watching it, but the characters, strangely absurd and realistic at once, kept me watching. Think Seinfeld meets Freaks and Geeks. There's some good laughs towards the end, and it's fairly heartwarming. If you're in the mood for something a little different but don't expect too much, go ahead and watch it.

I couldn't really see what was so funny at first with this film, but as it goes through it just gets stranger, and can be quite amusing in the second half. I guess it just grows on you. A movie without a point, but still worth seeing.

Wish I had read this thread first - I got this movie yesterday but turned it off after 20 minutes. Maybe I should give it a 2nd chance?

I heard all sorts of great things about this movie and saw it with high hopes.

I sat through the entire film, shut it off, and said, "huh?". There is no point to it. There are a couple of chuckles, but overall I thought it was a waste of time. Not horrible, more like a void in my life that could have been used much more productively.

An unusual Revenge of the Nerds type movie. I sat through all of it. It wasn't a bad movie, and there were certainly some interesting characters, but there was very little point to it.

i liked the world that was created. not every movie has to have deep meaning. some can exist as quirky little asides.

I loved it!

It's just the little things that are hilarious.

You know what I hate about it?

All the people it's spawned who run around quoting it constantly in very crap Napoleon voices. Aughhhhh

I quite liked the movie. But I'm kinda odd that way I guess.

I finally saw this movie this weekend. I thought it was hilarous, but not in an obvious way-it is very subtle, like Napoleon's t-shirts! Cracked me up! Made me laugh how everyone was stuck in 1986.
